Pronunciation Polish
Today’s Sentence:You’re not supposed to be back here.
David
▶︎ All right, everyone. It’s time for “Pronunciation Polish.”
You had better not skip today’s practice, OK?
Here’s today’s phrase.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
All right.
We have just a couple of points to focus in on today.
Let’s start off with the disappearing /t/ sound in “not.”
not
you’re not, you’re not
All right.
Next, we’ll join up “supposed” and “to.”
supposed to
not supposed to
not supposed to be back here, not supposed to be back here
All right.
Let’s go for the full sentene.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
All right.
Now we are ready to speed it up.
Remember, this is a serious warning.
So let’s add the intonation.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
If you want extra emphasis,
you can say it like in the dialogue.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
Let’s try that one too.
・You’re not supposed to be back here.
All right.
Both are good.
So let’s practice them, yeah?
Great work today.
